Bourgeois Pig Opening This Week in Carroll Gardens

A few months ago, we told you that the East Village fondue bar Bourgeois Pig would be coming to Brooklyn, and now we hear it’s just a few days away from opening its cheesy, chocolatey doors. Partners Ravi DeRossi, Luis Gonzalez (executive chef of Cienfuegos and Death & Co.), and Frank Cisneros of Dram are behind the project, which has landed inside the Scotto Funeral Home building on Court and First, under Area Spa. Did someone say "perfect first date"? [Brownstoner]
